Anyone would like to share which place you can farm the fastest?
I'm trying to farm for my epic flying mount, need another 3k gold..

I tried elementals to farm for motes, but they are so not melee friendly.. immune poisons also. Scyers elves near black temple are camped by so many mages/prot pallies aoeing.. I really cant think of any other place to farm, please advice where else can i go..

If so, I'd think Nagrand in general would be perfect.

Do daily quests.

If you haven't finished all the quests in netherstorm and shadowmoon, do that. Easy 1K gold or so. I spent a day questing and it paid for my mongoose.

think about it this way. you've got 300,000 silver to make. at 15-20 silver a drop from most 69-70 lvls, you need 15,000-20,000 kills. Thats. A. Lot. Like they said above, finish every quest you have and do your 10 dailies.

Here is a comparison:

3 kills/minute - 100 kills an hour at 15silver/kill = 2700 silver/hour or 27G.

Depending on how fast you can complete them is your deciding point on where to spend your time. good luck :)

Also make a Pick Pocket macro for all of your openers. CS/Garrote/Sap.

Depending on how well the Scryer Rep items sell on your server yopu can farm the BElfs at the Temple, on the top tier and the one below it.

I had myself a little farm route there, never was there a time when the belf I was up to hadn't respawned.

Quite a few greens (including arcane tomes) some sunfury signets, and you'd probably get a few blues and maybe a purple out of it.

My warrior only got 1 blue (but he has terrible luck with drops) and it was the schematic for the mana potion injector.

BT's terraces are good places to farm period for Rogues, it doesn't matter for rep. You have tons of dailies now, farming gold does not take much effort.

The fastest way to gain G is farming Chests in Mana. 2 Chests in 8-10 min. Just kill the mobs and loot the chests. 0/31/30 is perfect for this. I'm doing it in 45-50 mins. 60-65G Cash 80-85% Green 15-20% Blue drops. Appro. 200G/Hour without any problem.

Thanks all for the different farming methods, i also discovered one thing, using my engineering mote extractor.. Easy 4-5 motes of air at nagrand every extraction. Even with my slow helicoptor, i manage to get 4 primal air in 1 hour extracting and killing a bit of air elementals. I think if i have the epic mount, it would be close to 10 primal air per hour..

You're only thinking of each mob dropping 15 silver which is a pathetic amount of gold. Grind humans, rogues own at it. Send green drops to a friend who disenchants and sell the mats, sell scryer rep on the AH (tomes, signets). You get netherweave cloth, super healing pots from pickpocketing, silver each mob, signets, tomes, greens and the odd blue and the very rare epic. Without factoring blues into it, you should be grinding at 150g/hour. I always find grinding faster then doing daily quests, but not by a whole lot. The nice thing about dailies is its straight cash in your pocket. Grinding you have to AH your drops, not a big deal but you gotta do it.

So I'd say do dailies then grind scryer rep in Netherstorm (outside area 52). Stick to the mana forges, theres way too many casters around so mages + pallies can't AOE grind.

The thing I love about grinding is your gear is directly responsible for your gold/hour. At first on my warlock I was only hitting ~140 an hour grinding, but now I can hit 250+ grinding primal fires, or 220+ grinding scryers. At a certain level of gear, grinding far outperforms questing.

I did some farming on my Warrior last night at the BElfs above BT.
After an hour or so, I had:
52 Sunfury Signets
2 Arcane Tomes
3 other greens
Three of Lunacy
Mana-Surging Pauldrons

and all the extra crap sold for an extra 20g.

Quest. Finish every quest you've started and do the dailies. You should have 5k as soon as you're done with SMV quests if you're smart about it.

Thanks all for the different farming methods. I have completed almost all soloable quests in outland, even most of smv group chain quests are completed. Actually i wasted a lot of gold enchanting/gemming and up my engineering not long ago. Now doing skyguard dailies, trying to get a group to help me unlock orgila dailies, now at 2.5k gold. 2.7k more to go.. hope can earn it in 2 weeks.
I will go and study the mana tomb video and try it when i get bored from farming.

Nah, theres only about ~1.5k gold in quests in SMV max. I didn't touch a single SMV/Netherstorm quest until 70 on my mage, then I did every single one working towards my epic flyer. I'd say each zone has about ~1.5k gold in quests, then I disenchanted quest rewards, and gathered herbs along the way. Also had to grind some primals and humanoids along the way.

Thats where I am on my warlock, I did every quest long before thinking of an epic flyer. So now I have no more solo quests, except dailies. It definately makes it much more of a grind when you don't have quests. I made slightly better gold/hour doing straight grinding then questing, but trying to grind 5000g is mindnumbing.
